PROJECT REQUIREMENTS

SECTION 1 – DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT & OBJECTIVES

1.1 MISSION STATEMENT

The Forest Service mission is captured by the phrase "Caring for the Land and Serving People." Our mission, as set forth by law, is to achieve quality land management under the sustainable multiple-use management concept to meet the diverse needs of people.

1.2 PROJECT BACKGROUND

The Angeles National Forest was established on December 20, 1892 as the San Gabriel Timberland

Reserve, the first forest reserve in California, and the fifth in the nation.

In order to properly administer this vast wild land and public use, the Angeles National Forest is divided into three Ranger Districts. The San Gabriel River Ranger District has a District Office in Glendora, CA.

The Rincon project is located within this Ranger District.

The new Rincon Fire Station and Barracks project site is located on Hwy 39, 12 miles north of the 210

Freeway. This Fire Station has provided fire protection services for the San Gabriel Canyon in the

Angeles National Forest for many decades. The present station is currently staffed with one fire engine, one water tender, and one fire prevention technician in a pre-engineered metal building. In addition the site provides office space, work space, and storage for 10 recreation employees and other Ranger District

SUMMARY OF WORK 01 01 00-2

programs. The objectives of this project are:

(i) The consolidation of facilities in the San Gabriel Canyon, without reducing first response capabilities.

(ii) The improvement of energy efficiency and reduction of the carbon footprint of the Forest facilities in San Gabriel Canyon through better insulation, natural lighting and ventilation, with replaced electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC components.

(iii) The elimination of deferred maintenance costs associated with the buildings to be eliminated.

1.3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In 2009, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) monies became available for the consolidation of facilities in the San Gabriel Canyon, without reducing first response capabilities. The

Rincon Fire Center will act as a station and staging area allowing for the increase and decrease of fire resources based on funding and need. It will serve as home base for fire resources that can be strategically moved in the San Gabriel Canyon to provide coverage for high risk areas.

The proposed project will consist of the following a new 4704 square foot (measured at the interior face of the walls) energy efficient Fire Station, one 10 person barracks, and the relocation of an existing pre-fabricated metal warehouse to a new location at the west area of the site and all site improvements shown on the plans and outlined in these Project Requirements. Options include another 10 person barracks, and site lighting, and paving of . Both the Barracks and the Fire Station buildings have a standard plans prepared by the Forest Service which will require minor building modifications outlined in Section 2. The

Government will require the site to be operational throughout the construction period until the completion of all the facilities for the recreation personnel and the Fire staff. Miscellaneous Forest Service equipment presently on the site will be relocated by the Government as to not interfere with the new construction.

The estimated cost for the above described bid delivery is between $1,500,000 and $5,00,000.
